Milan's marble cathedral glows under a rose sunset sky in this photochrom by the Photoglob Co. from around 1895, with an old hand-coloured map of the walled city inside. Begun in 1386, the Duomo took nearly six centuries to finish and is crowned by more than a hundred spires. For someone who loves Italy or dreams of going.
